Oracle vs. SAP: What you need to know

"SAP is vulnerable," said Wirtschaftswoche. (Wirtschaftswoche, "Prefer to get out?" 12 Feb 2021). Manager Magazin questions the SAP platform, stating that SAP's many acquisitions "were put under a single [S/4HANA] brand but not on a single technology platform, much to the dismay of SAP customers." (Manager Magazin, "Why SAP is losing the connection," 18 Feb 2021). Even the head of SAP's German user group DSAG – Jens Hungershausen – is skeptical, stating in the same Wirtschaftswoche article that "the migration to S/4HANA is such a mammoth undertaking, customers may as well consider alternatives."
More recently, Morgan Stanley questions SAP's strategy, stating, "The key investor debate on SAP continues to be around its cloud transition-and therefore around Cloud subscription growth." (Morgan Stanley, "Can Cloud outperform this year?" 1 June 2021).

At Oracle, we understand why a company might have chosen SAP for their organization in the past. Factors that contributed to this choice probably included:

SAP business processes that cut across 1990s departmental silos
The integration that came along with SAP ECC or Business Suite (and is no longer there in S/4HANA)
The ability to customize SAP
The ability to work with SAP in real time
The large number of companies that were using SAP, possibly including your competitors and business partners
